I’m looking for a good charting library for Java. It can be open source or not and I need it to work in a stand alone client application rather than web-based.
We do have some dynamic charts however which scroll across the screen as data are provided that were done in MS chart and will need to be redone so not sure if JChart will accomplish this in an acceptable manner.
Are there any java charting libraries right in the J2SE API? I’ve also run across Oracle Chart Builder, but can’t seem to find any information on it other than this link: http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/A96127_01/jcb_intro.htm Has anyone ever heard of it before?
JFreeChart is an excellent open source charting library for java.
The samples demo (Java Web Start version or in the distribution) contains a section under Miscellaneous called Dynamic Charts (in addition to lots of others). The source code for the demos is available via the official documentation (the purchase of which supports the project).
